Paper making machine fabric as well as tissue paper produced thereby

ABSTRACT

The invention relates to a paper machine clothing in the form of a fabric with a web pattern which recurs regularly over the surface and has indentations ( 20 ) that are formed by the thread overlays ( 21 ), the latter having been surface ground. Said thread overlays cover three consecutive warp or weft threads crosswise thereto. A paper machine clothing of this type can be used especially in “through air drying” techniques to produce an especially voluminous tissue paper.

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The technical field, to which the invention relates, concerns the production of tissue paper on a corresponding paper making machine, in which in particular a through air drying (TAD) zone is present. A special impressing tissue is used in this TAD zone.

Prior Art

[0002] The sheet formation of the paper and the three-dimensional structuring of a moist non-woven fabric which has already been formed but can still be deformed due to a high residual water content is normally carried out on supporting fabrics which originate from textile weaving processes.

[0003] The three-dimensional structure of a moist paper sheet by the formation of zones of lesser density, which are framed by compressed zones, is carried out in modem tissue producing machines within the framework of pre-drying of the sheet in a pre-drying part before the Yankee cylinder. The pre-drying of the paper sheet is carried out on the supporting fabric by convection, in that hot air is pressed through the paper sheet which is located on the supporting fabric.

[0004] One speaks of “through air drying” or TAD.

[0005] The three-dimensional structuring is conventionally carried out in three steps, which usually succeed each other while being locally separated. The first step is formed by a deflection of the fibers in the Z-direction into the structuring recesses of the supporting fabric which are provided by the TAD impressing fabric which are systematically distributed over the area of the fabric which is contacted by paper. The deflection of the fibers in the Z-direction is caused by air and water flows, supported by a vacuum in one or, in certain circumstances, a plurality of suction boxes which is/are arranged on the side of the supporting fabric opposite the side contacted by the paper.

[0006] The deflection of the fibers in the Z-direction into the interior of the recesses creates in the paper sheet zones of reduced density, which are also described as pillows. These zones of reduced density which are arranged in a pattern are dried in a second step on and/in the interior of the supporting fabric by the air which passes through one or a plurality of TAD cylinders and thereby it is fixed in the present fiber distribution. We speak of a “freezing” of the state of fiber distribution.

[0007] In a third step, partial compression is then carried out of the pre-dried non-woven fiber fleece by pressing the supporting fabric with the pre-dried sheet laid on it, by means of a press roller against the surface of the Yankee cylinder. The compression of the paper sheet is carried out on the raised points of the supporting fabric which can be formed both in certain zones of the surface of the supporting fabric by warp wires as well as by weft wires. Thereby the fibers which are located in recesses of the fabric remain protected against compression. TAD imprinting fabrics, as a supporting fabric, constitute a special form of the fabric which has its typical structure-forming properties due to the type of weaving, the yarn selection with respect to material, diameter, cross-sectional form and later treatment, for example the thermo-fixing and grinding of the surface.

[0008] Paper making machine fabrics are known for example from WO 96/04418, DE OS 30 08 344, EP0 724 038 A1.

DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0009] The technical problem (object) of the invention is to create a paper making machine fabric which is suitable and designed with respect to a tissue paper which is produced thereby of an improved three-dimensional surface structure in the form of a sequence of recesses and elevations for the achievement of a tissue paper with improved appearance, improved softness and increased volume in connection with an improved water absorption and an improved feel.

[0010] This problem is solved, in particular, by the features of patent claim 1.

[0011] This solution is based on the finding that in the fabric of the paper machine fabric in the weft and warp yarns of the fabric at selected points warp yarns are superimposed on three successive intersections of weft yarns and weft yarns are superimposed on three successive intersections of warp yarns, so that on the top of the paper making machine fabric, i.e. on the side of the fabric which contacts the paper, longer sections of the warp or weft yarns are exposed and by comparison with a normal standard weave had a larger degree of freedom of movement upwards, i.e. perpendicularly to the plane of the fabric. This greater degree of freedom of movement results during the matching of such yarn sections in the formation of relatively deep recesses, which provide the paper making machine fabric with an increased total height and therefore with higher three-dimensionality. This is increased, when in the zone of the at least three overlays the outer intersection points in direct succession are designed as based intersection points, at which the yarn is raised with the greater degree of freedom, when in the weaving process, the fabric is compressed after the introduction of the weft yarn and, in particular, a relatively dense fabric is produced in which the weft and warp yarns preferably no longer extend in a straight line in the transverse and longitudinal directions. This effect can also appear and, in certain circumstances, more strongly in connection with the dense fabric, if a thermo-shrinkage is caused in a relatively loose fabric. The forces which arise in this context lead to a strong raising of the yarn with a greater degree of freedom. Therefore due to the solution in accordance with the invention a paper making machine fabric is created, in which outstandingly deep recesses are present with the result that, in particular, in the TAD zone by using this paper making machine fabric a paper and, in particular, a tissue paper can be produced which has outstandingly great three-dimensionality with respect to increasing volume, which permits the paper to seem to be especially fluffy, and, in addition, shows outstanding capacity for water absorption together with excellent softness. In addition, the result is an improved similarity to a woven structure and therefore a character which is more similar to cloth.

[0012] When there is mention of a number of types of weft yarns, this means that such a number of weft yarns is present which take a different direction.

[0013] Special further embodiments with respect to the tissue paper result from subclaims 7 to 28. Accordingly the paper has two different types of non-compressed zones of different form or size. The non-compressed zones are surrounded by compressed zones, so-called picket zones. The different types of non-compressed zones can have a different number of creping folds. Each type of non-compressed zone always has preferably the same number of creping folds. It can occur that individual non-compressed zones of a certain type have a number of creping folds which do not deviate from the ideal value. But smaller non-compressed zones can also be present without creping folds and the larger non-compressed zones can be present with two creping folds.

[0014] Due to this product there is a substantially improved feel in that the mechanical properties of the tissue paper are substantially altered and/or improved. The textile type character is also substantially strengthened. There is also an improvement with respect to liquid absorption and adsorption by relatively large pockets to store liquid and large surface pores to accept particles. The tissue paper has a clearly greater thickness.

[0015] Further embodiments follow from the sub-claims. A further increase in the depth of the recesses can be achieved by the features of claim 2. A series of examples of embodiments emerges from the other sub-claims.

DESCRIPTION OF THE EXAMPLES OF EMBODIMENTS OF THE INVENTION

[0030]FIG. 1 shows schematically a paper making machine fabric, seen from the top, i.e. on the contact side of the paper sheet. It shows an area of eight weft yarns SF1 to SF8 and eight warp yarns KF1 to KF8 for the production of a complete pattern which repeats itself. Against the linen weave which is the simplest weave structure, in which the warp yarns are alternately above (cross over) and/or below (cross under) the weft yarn, and/or the weft yarns are alternately above or below the warp yarn, a cross under is replaced by a cross over in the weave pattern of FIG. 1 both in the case of the warp yarns as well as of the weft yarns at each eighth intersection. These intersection points are marked for the weft yarns by a “S” and for the warp yarns by a “I”. The corresponding weft yarns at the points marked “S” will below be described as an upper yarn weft and at the points marked “I” as under yarn weft, because there it is located below at least three warp yarns. Correspondingly at the points marked “I” the corresponding warp yarn will be described as the upper yarn chain and at the points marked “S” as the under yarn chain.

[0031] The upper yarns in the case of both warp and weft yarns form the actual support area of the fabric (the side contacting the paper). In the case of warp and weft yarns, the under yarns form the lower level of the fabric. As is shown in FIGS. 2, 3, 5 and 6 the upper yarns can also be ground in part in planar form to form the support plane, as is already known in connection with other paper making machine fabrics.

[0032] In the example of an embodiment in accordance with FIG. 1, eight weft yarns and eight warp yarns are required to produce a complete repetition of the pattern.

[0033] Weft yarn 1 is above warp yarns 1; 3; 5 to 7, and below warp yarns 2; 4; 8.

[0034] Weft yarn 2 is above warp yarns 8; 1 to 2; 4; 6, and below warp yarns 3; 5; 7.

[0035] Weft yarn 3 is above warp yarns 1; 5; 7, and below warp yarns 2 to 4; 6; 8.

[0036] Weft yarn 4 is above warp yarns 2; 4; 6 and below warp yarns 3; 5; 7 to 8; 1.

[0037] Weft yarn 5 is above warp yarns 1 to 3; 5; 7, and below warp yarns 4; 6; 8.

[0038] Weft yarn 6 is above warp yarns 2; 4 to 6; 8, and below warp yarns 1; 3; 7.

[0039] Weft yarn 7 is above warp yarns 1; 3; 5, and below warp yarns 2; 4; 6 to 8.

[0040] Weft yarn 8 is above warp yarns 2; 6; 8 and below warp yarns 1; 3 to 5; 7.

[0041] When in FIG. 1 the weft yarns 5 and 6 are observed, the two intersection points which are marked there as “S” are offset by three warp yarns.

[0042] As can be seen from FIG. 2, a pair of adjacent under yarns in the weft and/or warp direction is associated with a pair of upper yarns in the weft or warp direction. The cross-section of the fabric can also be more clearly inferred with respect to the third dimension from FIGS. 2a and 2 d. Due to the constellation described above, from the enlarged surface section in FIG. 3 relatively deep recesses (or small pockets) 20 result which provide the papers which are produced by this screen, in particular in the TAD zone, with a larger third dimension. Still more clearly recognizable are the bulges from FIG. 4 in the actual paper making machine fabric. In addition the ground upper yarns which have the reference numeral 21 are also discernible.

[0488]FIGS. 49 and 50 show respectively a paper product in accordance with the invention from the side of the Yankee cylinder and from the opposite side. FIG. 50 is adduced for the description. This view shows alternate different forms and sizes of non-compressed zones. Smaller non-compressed zones have been given the reference numeral 22 and the alternating larger non-compressed zones have been given reference numeral 23. These non-compressed zones 22 and 23 are surrounded by compressed zones, which can also be described as lines similar to pickets. They have the reference numeral 24 for a smaller non-compressed zone 22. In the same manner, these reference numerals are also present for the other non-compressed zones. In this special case, the smaller non-compressed zones 22 are designed without creping folds. The larger non-compressed zones in this case have two creping folds 25, in which these creping folds are present at a pre-determined distance 26. In accordance with the drawing in FIG. 50, two parallel compressed zones, between which there is a non-compressed zone, overlap each other by up to 20%. The distance in the machine direction (MD) and/or cross machine direction (CD) from one compressed zone to the other compressed zone is different in length. This is due to the fact that different types of non-compressed zones alternate with each other. In FIG. 50 this is marked by the signs 1 ₁ and 1 _(2.) The paper is also creped in the compressed zones, i.e. where the paper is pressed during the drying against the Yankee cylinder.

[0489] If the surface of the fabric is ground, not all warp yarns and weft yarns are ground, due to the high three-dimensionness of the fabric. Some yarns are located so considerably below the ground surface that only by extensively grinding the lower positioned yarns could also be ground.
